Using email on the RaQ 4
To use all of the email capabilities on the RaQ 4, the RaQ 4 Administrator must
correctly set the parameters for the email server; see “Email server” on page 53.
The user must also configure the email client to send email to and retrieve email
from the RaQ 4. Ensure the following information is entered into the email client:
1. Email address The format is:
<username>@hostname.domainname
(for example, [e-mail]) where:
• <username> is the user ID assigned to you (for example, myname)
• <hostname> is the name assigned to the RaQ 4 (for example, raq4)
• <domainname> is either the official domain name (for example,
cobalt.com) that is registered with a name registrar accredited by the
Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) or an
intranet domain name specific to your network. Obtain this information
from your network administrator.
For more information on ICANN, visit the ICANN Web site at
http://www.icann.org.
2. SMTP server The format is hostname.domainname (for example,
raq4.cobalt.com).
3. POP3 server The format is hostname.domainname (for example,
raq4.cobalt.com).
4. IMAP server The format is hostname.domainname (for example,
raq4.cobalt.com).

Note: Occasionally, an email application asks for an incoming mail
server. The incoming mail server is the POP3 server.
